Four men stand around the United States flag, displayed at the top of the Northland Hotel during its construction, Green Bay, Wisconsin, ca. 1924. Located at the corner of Pine and Adams Streets, the Hotel Northland was part of one of the largest hotel chains in Wisconsin during the 1920s. Hotels such as the Hotel Northland, the Hotel Retlaw in Fond du Lac, the Hotel Loraine in Madison, and the Hotel Schroeder in Milwaukee were created by Milwaukee businessman Walter Schroeder as part of the Schroeder Hotel Company. All of the hotels were advertised as having large numbers of rooms, modern facilities, coffee shops, ballrooms, and cocktail lounges. These facilities were used to the fullest in Green Bay with numerous conventions, political rallies, and Green Bay Packer business meetings held at the hotel.
